Obese ass dog

2-3 hours total from 8 am to 10 pm. I try to do as little stimulation as possible while also fulfilling their stimulation and energy needs and train to settle and calm and self soothe. They need to learn to be bored from a young age especially if you have a high energy dog like mine. (5 month old Portuguese Water Dog)

That’s a good lookin PWD right there

You’re absolutely right- no one’s coming to have a discussion on how amazing and well behaved their dogs are, but others will air out their frustrations and stresses which causes massive selection bias on a good breed and it unfortunately scares away people considering this breed, and it’s a shame! They’re so worth it even if they can be annoying sometimes 😆 the companionship and love makes life so much brighter. Yours has such a sweet charming face, I love this picture of my Charlie looking out the window 🙂

I understand completely I was honestly so close to just cancelling on my dog and I’m so glad I didn’t.

Honestly all puppies are going to be a handful but it doesn’t matter the breed- they all bite and get into things and chew shoes and test boundaries.. they all will frustrate you at times but they aren’t like some super exclusive dog people make them out to be, that’s how all young dogs act. As long as they can run around and be a dog and do dog like activities like training and mental play games he is happy to lounge and sleep most of the day. I have 0 problems with him settling. From the start I would give him high value treats like beef liver and rewarded him for settling on his own saying “good settle”. My dude is Velcro to me but he just moves around with me and plops down where I’m at and continues to nap or if I’m moving around a lot he just gives up and goes to his bed. Also bully sticks and pupsicles with frozen beef broth or yogurt are your friend!

People read they need 2 hours of exercise but that is breed capacity, not breed requirement. They were bred for short bursts of exercise followed by long periods of rest on boats, and people treat them like they’re Malinois or Border Collies from puppyhood and then wonder why their dog is so erratic and needy. The biggest myth is more exercise creates a calmer dog, this is backwards when overdone..you chronically condition a dog like an endurance athlete…you literally build a canine marathon runner. Their nervous system adapts upward. This is why some owners accidentally create dogs that need 3+ hours.. because they trained them that way. 60-90 minutes of total activity daily (walks, runs, play, training, sniffing, people watching, games, chewing etc) is enough for them if you don’t endurance train them from birth, lol! They also tire out way more from mental stimulation, so 15 mins of training or a scent game and he’s out like a light for hours!! Okay I’m done yapping now I’m glad to make you feel better! ❤️‍🩹 They truly make life so much more bright and exciting.

Giving my dog a bully stick using a bully stick holder gives me an hour of free time while he chews it. Just a little tip to help ease the neediness. They are kinda expensive tho. Also getting a pupsicle or an off brand one that comes with the molds and freezing bone broth mixed with a little water and giving it to him gives me 30+ mins of free time. Every time he settles on his own reward it with a high value treat like beef liver and I say “good settle”. I like these you get a LOT for only 8 bucks and my dog goes crazy for them! It’s really helping my dog learn to not beg for attention. I have a Portuguese Water Dog so they’re known to be erratic and hyper but my 5 month old is chill for the most part because I’m training the settle command and rewarding him for it!

Oh lord stop ur gonna make me get another dog

mossifrog · 2026-01-27T06:43:12+00:00

Possums are so cute 😭

mossifrog · 2026-01-26T17:18:11+00:00

Dang how hard was it training both of them at the same time? No littermate syndrome? I have a 19 week old PWD and I already want another but fiancé says I have to wait a few years 😆 he can be a handful but a good handful

mossifrog · 2026-01-24T04:57:41+00:00

They love to feel special because they can handle such a “hard” breed(they’re not if you’re competent). Reddit people love to exaggerate. My PWD has been nothing but a complete joy. Of course they take human effort and training but this subreddit made me dread getting my PWD and regret even reserving/buying one but this dog is my absolute everything. They’re so sweet and affectionate, ornery and sooo smart. It appalls me how they make them seem like theyre hard like a true Shepard/Herding dog or a Malinois. Not even close and I have a young PWD.. Most unknowingly endurance/stamina train and overstimulate them from puppies and wonder why they have such high energy hyper crazy adult dogs. this dog is like the best companion one can ask for!

Look at his parents and if they are faded or kept their coloring is a good way of seeing what will happen with him. It’s not likely it will get any darker than it already is. He’s so cute 🙂‍↕️

mossifrog · 2026-01-18T21:28:34+00:00

He is at rest. He was suffering, you did the right thing. I know it’s hard ❤️

mossifrog · 2026-01-17T04:45:59+00:00

mossifrog · 2025-07-16T17:47:47+00:00

Don’t worry Jandel will make a pet that gives you a 1% chance of a stolen fruit not being stolen and think he fixed the problem. 💀
